A story about seeing and being seen that leaves the world a little more beautiful.
Sly as a fox and swift as a bird, Lou Alice is determined to leave each day a little more beautiful than she found it. But when she moves away from her little house, no one in town notices she's gone. No one, that is, except a little girl, who sets out to carry on Lou Alice's work. But doing so is not enough.
Can the girl find a way of her own to make the world a little more beautiful?
For readers who love Miss Rumphius by Barbara Cooney or The Library by Sarah Stewart and David Small.
